Addington Race 8

SPARKLING TERRA SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $5,364

FAIRWAY FLYER (6) has a terrific record this track and trip with two wins and one placing from three starts. Recorded a 0.8 lengths win (26.03) in a SPECf last time at Ascot Park. Drops back in distance but usually begins very quickly. Makes strong appeal on best. ROVANIEMI (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (18.01) in a Class 5 at this track. Form from his last run is proving strong. Box draw is ideal and expected to run well. TWO DOWN (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 35 times for 17 wins and seven minors. In the money last time at this track (17.12) in a Class 5, finishing a 1.1 lengths third. Can hit the frame with the right run. OPAWA BAXTER (7) is always a threat when he races at this track and distance.

Good effort to win last start by 2 lengths over 295m at this track in a handy (16.98), beating Diamond Archie. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.

Missed the frame latest (17.29) when fifth over 295m at this track in a Class 5. Has four successes and five minors from 13 starts from box 3. Thereabouts last start but looks tested this time.

Finished third last time (17.08) over 295m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Key chance on best figures.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (18.01) in a Class 5, finishing a 8 length sixth. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. Looks suited and should go close.
